Lyrics

Waking up in the promised land
Feel the morning shine on me
I'm a child an American
In the country air I breathe

Waking up in a heartland field
In the nature I have sewn
Nothing better than the peace I feel
Or watching how the land has grown

And we didn't learn without a fight
And we are the sons of our father's sacrifice

Waking up in America
The sun is shining on the seas
Dewy drops on the mountain tops
Never looked so purple to me

And we didn't learn without a fight
And we are the sons of our father's sacrifice
And I have a promise to this land
Leave it alone or I will fight it all I can
Once again

Waking up in the promised land
Feel the morning shine on me
I'm a child an American
In the country air I breathe

Waking up in the promised land
